What is MAEPiMS?
Mathematical Modelling | Epidemiology | Machine Learning | Social Indicator
A multidisciplinary competition designed for the next generation of thinkers to apply their skills to solve challenging tasks.
This initiative focuses on the surveillance, prediction, and analysis of infectious diseases by integrating mathematical modeling, machine learning, and socioeconomic indicators.
Challenge/Purpose
To task participants to develop actionable solutions and policy recommendations for public health and societal impact.
Aims
- Equipping the next generation of thinkers with challenging tasks to enhance their skills for academic and community impact Utilizing mathematical modelling and machine learning to provide actionable solutions and recommendations for policymakers.
Objectives
- To foster interdisciplinary research between mathematical modelling and other fields.
- The integration of developing machine learning algorithms and mathematical modelling for research focus (infectious disease, social modelling, prediction and interventions).
